Jewish History, POI & Kosher Establishments in Paris

During the Middle Ages, Paris was a center of Jewish learning with famous Talmudic scholars, such as Yechiel of Paris who took part in the Disputation of Paris between Christian and Jewish intellectuals. The Parisian Jewish community was victim of persecution, alternating expulsions and returns, until France became the first country in Europe to emancipate its Jewish population during the French Revolution. Half the city's Jewish population perished in Nazi concentration camps, while others fled abroad.
A large migration of North African Sephardic Jews settled Paris in the 1960s, and represent most of the Paris Jewish community today. There are close to 100 synagogues and 15 mikvahs in the city. The Marais-quarter Agoudas Hakehilos Synagogue, built in 1913 by architect Hector Guimard, is a Paris landmark. Most restaurants and indeed Jewish life was in the 9th, 3rd and 4th arrondissements, there are fewer restaurants in ‘The Marais’ now, and more restaurants are appearing in the 17th 18th and 19th arrondissements.
